No wonder, the tickets to Wicked on Broadway are not easy to procure. Tickets for such an award winning musical are sold out months in advance. By March 11, 2007, after nearly three and a half years of continuous run, Wicked had already made 1404 performances on Broadway, and is still going strong. If the tickets to Wicked on Broadway are not available through Gershwin Theater’s box office, your best option is through the services of the many ticket brokers of New York.
